Well I love the Cure always have always will...nothing they have ever done is offensive to my ears (unlike most drivel you hear on all the other stations)!..therefore R P play as many times as you like{#Wink}

It's a good song. this website is Radio Paradise. Radio implies some repetition to stay in business to serve up tunes to the masses! You'll get something you rarely hear soon, like next.

One of my friends was like, "My husband and I danced to The Cure for our Wedding!"

The other was like, "Which one?  The one that sounds different?"

And then she cried.

I thought he summed them up well though.  They had a good hit, and milked it for all it was worth.

OUTSTANDING - might be my favorite Cure album.  This is like a flippin' post modern orchestral arrangement!!

I used to listen to this song when my girlfriend was away, looking (naturally) of photos of happy times. It lifted me up, knowing that she's coming back and the good times shown in the photos would start again.

And  now she is gone. I'm not looking at any photos (would not be a good idea), but I realise what an excellent songwriter Robert Smith is. Bang on- he really did get it right.

I love me some good Cure - but this ain't it - never did get the appeal of this disc - like a mainstream attempt at Seventeen Seconds, i guess...

Well, go ahead.

At least an 8 for most of us.

Considering you didn't refer to "the singer" as Robert Smith, I'm guessing you're on the young side.

This song has been a part of my life for so long. The Cure are one of the bands of my youth that I still hold onto.

Not particularly fond of this tune by The Cure. A bit drawn out to me. Then again...I don't have to hear Robert Smith crooning right at the beginning...so that's a plus. Oh well...there he goes. I suppose this tune is at least pleasant to the ears.

I liked this whole album when it came out, but it wasn't until a few years after that, that I came to appreciate how these particular lyrics seemed to foretell the situation I was to be in.  Interesting how some songs can do that.

I couldn't stand the Cure in the 80s and 90s... mostly because of teenage social pressures.
I now love this song and several others i hear on RP regulalrly.
Makes me wonder what other great stuff i shut out when i was a kid.

Take a lesson Stingray. Be open to new sounds.
